In Word (2008 for Mac), in the normal View->Print.Layout mode, the TOC of my document displays onscreen as a code:

{ TOC \O "1-3" \H \Z \U }




I guess this code is supposed to resolve to the actual fully-laid out Table of Contents - indeed, Print Preview shows it normally.

How can get the TOC to expand and display properly onscreen, rather than as this cryptic code?

Thanks.

Look for an option to hide field codes. Sorry, I have never used MacWord, so I can't give you any more specific advice, except that the corresponding keyboard shortcut in WinWord is Alt+F9 (if that helps at all).
